I just got off a conference call with a coworker who attempted, multiple times, to throw me under the bus for a problem she just created. Would you travel?
I love how all of the techno-nerds of today equate a skill that has been necessary for survival since the dawn of humanity with being a serial killer. Keep tapping away at your smart phones, nerds. Our species is doomed.
Well, I don't know about yours, but our species figured out that by hiring a butcher to properly prepare meat for us, we no longer need an appendix to dissolve the bones missed when hacking them apart with a sharpened rock. So, nyuh.
I love how some people think somehow were all going to go backwards to some dark age where their obsolete skills will once again be necessary for survival rather than useful albeit unnecessary skills for living. Keep dreaming of a nuclear apocalypse or a zombie uprising or something while I tap away on my phone comfortably in my nice, centrally heated house. People who equate technological progress and higher living standards with getting weaker as a species give me the sads.
Seriously. If the apocalypse does come, know what I'm doing? Killing myself. Why the fuck would I stick around for that shit?
Bingo. Also, though I didn't really dig Food Inc and found it overly alarmist and as insufferable as I find paleo dieters sometimes. The stuff they espouse rings true. The shit you get shrink wrapped at Krogers is pretty far from what nature intended. I still douse my deer jerky in sodium nitrite. Don't need any of that botulism.
I despise all of the food docs. Within the first 5 minutes they all pull out shitty evidence taken from horribly designed studies conducted 50+ years ago and make a giant leap in assumption to support their (usually) extremist philosophy. People like my vegan cousin blindly accept this horseshit as gospel. This is my pet peeve.
